"And until recently, I have not gained full knowledge of photography: in the art of code that contains a knowledge that captures the reality -Through the Light. I explore it back, and the code of Arts presented itself without being bound by the basic aesthetics or composition of the Arts, and becomes the Blessing to be 'Advanced of Arts' (afterwards)" – by: Indra Widi.

“Be different”, the value of many of the technical assessment, contemporary photography can resist even the definition of ‘recent’ and ‘present’ it itself, the range of time / situation. All of it, is a form of contemporary works (photography) in the definition of the obvious. Many things can not define contemporary photography, when assessing the work of the image is only from one point of view or a technical one. Of course, as in previous writing, need a confirmation from the start, which is more like it to appear, first photographic technical originality, or technical, to a mere means of discourse alone? For a ‘real photographer’, is the most dominant technical importance, meanwhile, for the fine arts (visual arts), technically, can be ignored. A photographic work “slick” but without the content, meaning empty without exposure to a particular investigation. Visual character of the photographic means ‘recent period’, is the content / content photography is the study of ‘present perception’, and both are built for a memorable look different or something new. Contemporary photography from established continuity way of seeing (angle), and a way of viewing (perception), in a situation of (fill-investigation proportion) of a thing.

Different from the usual, unique, strange, different from the others, so called: ‘eccentric’, is the requirement that the rationale, for the work of contemporary photography. Proportion and contents, refer to the specific knowledge, are the subject of investigation object / subject, originality and new ideas to be further developed. Making the base, closer, mixing, and so on, to go beyond, of different definitions of the other disciplines, it would be an interesting interpretation. There are 3 basic interesting study that could be explored further to be linked, namely: psychophysics, Perception, and Pragmatism. Anthropology, Archaeology, and Ethnology, is the scientific study of the most popular nearby. There are other things that are very interesting but often overlooked because of the proximity of the subject, namely the local daily life and activities. Life the moment the situation is close to us, right before our eyes. Local activities are moments that are often encountered and passed every time. Contemporary emphasis on photography, in the form of continuity way of seeing (angle) and how to view (perception) in a particular situation (investigation). Many things are missing from everyday life and local activities.

As reiterated, ‘This was photography’, then technically, was the dominant one definition of fine-art of photography in a technical context itself. Using the technical and getting different results from ever before, both from how to take photos or show it. When asserted, ‘This is art / the fine arts’, then it could technically be ignored, and the both definition was Contemporary, based on photography. Final Lock, located on the Contents and Proportion of view, when it comes to this study: “Visual” is deciding everything. Visual appearance can be boring, but with a certain knowledge (psychophysics, Perception, Pragmatism, Anthropology, Archaeology, and Ethnology), will be able to ‘invigorating’ and make it more exciting. Daily life and local activities, becoming fuller and deeper meaning, if we are more careful detail and convey a lot of things, which is hidden, and often overlooked earlier. Angle, from view finder, or, from where we stand with eyes to see, and get a moment / object, into a visual perception to be delivered. Perception, was way of viewing, which means how to judge of something,-from the brain. And to be different, was ‘spirit’ of a visual work that seen by the eye, which became the basis of the contemporary-ness of it themselves.

In assessing visual work: photography or photo-of contemporary, sometimes we are ‘stuck’ to the term ‘the boredom-ness’ and ‘to-not-like-ness’ about many things, regardless of the content and the proportion of a certain study. Audience feels ‘not stunned’ or ‘surprised’, bored or do not like, and this became the “subjectivity”. Both these factors may appear because, someone let ‘silent’ to his work, with a specific purpose-perhaps), or may be even: ‘do not know’ how ‘the way’ to define, or ‘seeking attention’ to the audience, and produced a work that be ‘more speak’ properly. All of these basic communication and discipline. When the ‘subjectivity’ discussed and appears, it should be: ‘objectivity’, is a ‘couple’ nearest, in a horizontal line, for review and further linked. Objectivity is the technical basis of the investigation of the photographic work. All were returned to the technical process, because this is the photography, which is to be developed and should be able to go beyond the content and proportion of basic studies. From a technical ‘established’, which must be exceeded / developed further. At a minimum, we can ‘shoot accurately with a recording device, and make the results of the’ photo ‘is a union of the final’ grafi ‘it first. Photographing and standardize the results, as well as outlining its definition content. Experience and references essential basis, the formation of ‘new work’ a study ‘anti-establishment’ of the photographic works of the ‘boring’, who studied ‘always’ of engineering-technical means alone. Basically the ‘aesthetic’ is moving subjectivity by objectivity connection itself.

Photography, today has been so easy to talk about the visual’s exist globally worldwide. Aware that the obtainment ‘new angle’, they appear only allows a few percent. Likewise the photo shoot of the ‘new moment’, at least as many to be a resemblance. The new technical, almost no longer be important, because it is easy to learn and exciting ‘only’ a moment. However, building a ‘visual agreement’ that contains knowledge in ‘packaging narrative’ is the most exciting and closest relation energy (the electromagnetic spectrum)-the photographic works on the RGB-visible light. Elaborate visual agreement with how to view and listen to the content-exposure proportion in a work, without limiting to certain distaste-is extremely important.A proportion of content-knowledge of photography, ‘should’, let up, if there is ‘lack’, we can add a certain way, which can be associated knowledge. Visual agreement and any related in photography in particular, involve an important factor that is often overlooked, which is: Voice. Visual and Sound, is a continuous unity on the basis and process. Photography is ‘the silent’, and the sound is ‘soul mate’ it. Both should be ‘united’. Sound, explicitly is the wave of sound itself, and the application can be done verbally or in writing narrative. More precise and effective, voice assessment: involves writing and pronunciation, as well as the sound itself. To find “the soul mate” its photography, the most popular method used by the investigation and write them, or record voice / add voice / convey the content orally and in writing. And this is the beginning of the process.

Searching for many of the most fundamental question of life. Make lots of definitions and meaning from the beginning and origin of issues. Sorting out one by one, peel gently and carefully. Looking for data and references to be used as a guideline. Back to the early origins and process all occurrences into a flashback for later translated again in the future. Elaborate many ambiguities in the definition and meaning are increasingly blurred and distorted randomly into many directions. Finding a source for later channeled into a new reference and becomes: Dogma.

PHOTOGRAPHY: THE ART OF VISUAL OPTICS

"For me (and this is subjective) preferred to use: Photography first, then Art. That’s because - Art in Photography will flowed out when I am deepen photography with a vengeance. And until recently, I have not gained full knowledge of photography: in the art of code that contains a knowledge that captures the reality -Through the Light. "
